This game is one of my top 10 Xbox 360 games. The cover based shooting is run of the mill you've done it all before. The story is where this game really shines. It has a very Apocalypse Now vibe to it. Some really cool twist and turns along the way and the ending is just WOW!! You owe it to yourself to play this game.

Review title of guitarherolord1Highly underrated and forgotten masterpiece

Buy this. Buy this NOW.
Shame this game was overshadowed by bigger games at the time of release being put up against diablo 3, black ops 2, borderlands 2, assassin's creed 3, mass effect 3, far cry 3, dragon's dogma, dishonored, halo 4, max payne 3, etc.
The combat is a bit bland, nothing you can't get from gears of war or army of two.
But the story and the twists, HOLY HELL you're in for a ride. This is a game that EASILY makes top 10 best games of the last generation.

Review title of Wolf Rome D AGreat story oriented military shooter.

This game to me is a classic, I remember when it came out back in 2012. As opposed to other military shooters, this one is dark, and I feel that is appropriate for the genre and it feels mature. The story gives a few choices to make in the game, which will affect which ending you get.
The gameplay is standard third person shooter, with pressing a button to hug cover like gears of war, but realistic in the sense you can kill someone with a headshot. I enjoy the core gameplay, and it serves as a good vehicle for the game's strength, which is the story.
I think the game has aged well and for those who haven't played it in the past, I would recommend checking it out. It's not really that long, it can be find relatively cheap, and it's a classic. This is one of games I really wanted to be bc, and I am so very happy it is.

The story is definitely one hell of a ride, with a wow moments. Showing how even the best soldiers are put to the test. Great 3rd person shooter, glad it's b/c so I can replay the madness, plus to go through it on FUBAR difficulty so that way I'll have all 50 achievements.

Gears of War style controls mixed with a tactical shooter and one hell of a story. This franchise needs a sequel or remaster at least.

Review title of ShootYaDeadHardGreat addition to the BC library.

This game is awesome. It was everything the 360 Mercenaries game wasn't (fun & well made)
Plus it's SUPER awesome this game is only $6 bucks right off the bat. Usually they're $20 minimum. Keep up the reasonable & affordable pricing for old last gen games MS!
BUY THIS ASAP.
(BTW anyone know why we can't game DVR this game? It has nothing to do with it being a BC/360 game cause I can use DVR on nearly every other BC 360 title I have)
Edit: Found out it's a 2K thing. They just won't let you game DVR some of their games, even including the XB1 remasters of Bioshock...yes...EVEN BIOSHOCK INFINITE.
This is stupid 2K, game clips help SELL people on your games. Especially old 360 BC ones certain people have never heard of. Like I had to LEAVE THE STORE and go on YouTube to see if The Darkness 2 was something I wanted to buy (it was) THIS. IS. ANNOYING. Game Clips from users would've told/sold me a lot quicker & WITHOUT me having to leave the store...

Amazing game, like a hybrid cross between Gears of War and Call of Duty. Great story and Dubai as a setting is top notch! The only downfall is the $30 price the Microsoft Store is asking for. Go pick up a used copy for $10, you wont regret it.
